FWIW I dug into the schematics a bit to see if there was a way to get the 
DRU-2 to feed into the data input instead of the mic input. If you gnd the PKS 
input (packet stand-by line) the mic is muted while the data input remains 
active. While easy for an external DVP, the DRU-2 path is hard connected to 
the mic at the mute circuit.

Hmm actually there MAY be a way out of that box if you give up some of the DRU 
function. I just had another idea about it I need to check out in the 
schematic...more soon.
